LEGS COOKED. HEART FULL. Patrick’s at the pool in Rwanda.
990 KM / 112 hours. 11 punctures. Red dust. Pigs, trucks, rain, sun. Dynaplugs, Coca-Cola, always stubborn forward motion.
Kids racing him through the streets, people everywhere, smiles louder than the chain, new friends that felt like old ones.
Africa rewrote the rhythm of every pedal stroke.
Huge thank you to @theracearoundrwanda The route was absolutely epic. Pure, beautiful CHAOS.

Our Backyard Gravels are everything but a race...
Join us for a three-day weekend filled with shared rides, good food, and the chance to challenge yourself. Whether you’re an experienced ultracyclist or trying bikepacking for the first time, there’s something for everyone.
We’ve spent a lot of time scouting the routes, adding shortcuts and optional loops so you can customize your ride. Each evening, we’ll gather at a camp or in a rifugio for homemade meals and stories.
In May, we’ll explore the trails around Bodensee, and in September, we’ll head to Carinthia. Each location offers its own unique scenery - from hidden paths in the woods at Bodensee to the Slovenian mountains, Austrian lakes, and Italian coffee around Carinthia.
Are you ready to join us? Registration opens tomorrow, January 25th, at 8 PM. It’s first come, first served!
